    Seat poacher

    Nice one. If instead you’d gotten the crew offside and gone OTT, they might have given the upgrade to someone else!

    MEL - HNL via SYD (using the QF curbside First Class Check-In Lounge)

    I believe the First check in can only check people in for international QF flights - you'll have to go to the domestic terminal to check in as your first flight is domestic.

    Dual citizenship and travelling on non AU passport

    There will be some issues if you’re an Australian citizen but try to enter/exit Australia on a foreign passport. Agree with the comments about travelling on your Aus passport.

    Qantas frequent flyer with virgin ?

    My corporate agent does mixed airline bookings for me sometimes, and in these I see both the QF and VA flights in the QF app. I only get QF lounges and SCs with the QF flights, and VA lounges and SCs with VA.

    Jayne Hrdlicka to resign as CEO

    Bit sad (or maybe not) to get 'A message from Jayne Hrdlicka' email about features and promotions a couple of days ago. (I know these emails have some lag time for drafting and clearance.) Slightly interesting the email says they're "laser-focused on the experience" of booking and flying, bit...

    Qantas Platinum One experiences?

    Rang to get one Y and one J seat released to/from HKG. Both declined by the bot but got successful reviews and releases within a couple of days. Happy with the result and, unlike last time, for the exact dates I wanted.

    Will Qantas Offer Double Status Credits before Mooted FF Program Changes in 2024?

    ‘72-hour Surprise Sale’ ending Saturday. DSC promo next week? 😁 /speculation

    When do status credits go into your account?

    Welcome to posting. SCs reach your account generally just before you land (I've seen them appear when I turn off flight mode when taxiing at arrival) or within a few hours thereafter - but never before your flight. As mentioned the DSCs take longer, sometimes more than a week after your flight...

    Totally right - dunno how I missed that. (Insert facepalm emoji here)

    Qantas Platinum One experiences?

    What if I enter “because I will accept this as a consolation prize given you didn’t show me any Tay Tay love” - 18 words. Too sour grapes? And why not just offer it to Sydney P1s? Not all of us elsewhere have nothing better planned for two days with a week’s notice to get to NSW. Yeah I’m being...

    Qantas Platinum One experiences?

    Nothing here at all. Knowing my luck I'll probably be invited to Nickelback.
